Bound in the original dark blue boards lettered in gold on the spine. From the Dust Jacket: "This remembrance of a neighborhood restores to life -- in all its grit humor and magic -- a vibrant New York of prizefights in the Bronx Coliseum baseball in the original Yankee Stadium and dancing to the big-band sounds booming from the radio. Yet bread the staff of life is at the heart of this work; all vignettes radiate from the bakery. The author focuses his storytelling on individuals: among them the grocer the baker and the bookmaker. We also meet. the local Communist leader an irrepressible Hispanic porter a secretive Russian gardener a lonely wife gypsy tinsmiths and a magician -- who is not the only closely observed character who pulls surprises out of his hat. The author is too keen a chronicler to serve up mere nostalgia along with the bakery's recipe for challah and butter cookies the ones with the maraschino cherry in the middle that mothers mailed to their boys in the service. Mr. Korman's stories are delivered fresh-baked and warm with irony enough to assure a memorable bite.". INSCRIBED / SIGNED by the AUTHOR. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine condition./Fine dust jacket.
